Being passionate!

Martha Graham was a famous American dance teacher who once said, “Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion.”

You can really see this when someone is dancing. You can feel someone telling a story with their body when they dance versus simply going through the motions. It's like they come alive. The costumes help. The music helps. The scenery is important but their passion is what makes you truly enjoy the dancing.

You've seen people who love doing what they do. They have a zest for a hobby, an activity, learning about a topic, a game, a sport, or a cause like helping others. So what's something you love doing when you can do what you want?

Can't you think of some times when you noticed passion in someone else and you were amazed and excited just watching the person tell you about why they loved it?

Let's look at some samples from some other fifth graders. Check out Jennifer's post on country music, jazz music, and art. You can really feel her passion because she gives details and really makes her enjoyment come alive for you. What makes you come alive?

To me that recommendation was sort of like asking me personally to lock myself in the closet and shout out all of the services my website had to offer. But is it indispensable to enhance your Twitter followers gradually rather than to buy them everytime in bulk. Everyone can create a facebook page any needs.
